My four random words:

learn

duke

forge

express

"You seriously cannot expect the Duke to be okay with our sudden arrival," the woman beside you said as she peaked over to check the paper that you are reading.

"Well, he did say that we can stop by any time-"

"Which usually means sending a notice that we'll be coming at least, not just randomly showing up on his doorstep," she interjected, giving you that knowing look.

"Well, he better learn that what he says can be taken to heart-" you started when someone yells out "CUT!"

Both you and Jisoo look surprised at you face the director, trying to figure out where you had messed up. He waves his hand not to dismiss you two, but to state that it wasn't your fault as he looks around as if seeking the source-

"What is that sound coming from?" Taehyung finally gives in and asks the staff as he keeps moving to see if he can somehow magically make the source appear. "If we keep shooting, this whole scene may be usable. I am pretty sure the mics pick it up even if most of you don't hear it yet."

You sit straighter trying to see if you can hear what he is... and then-

"Oh! That buzzing!"

Taehyung grinned at you and gave you a playful finger gun. "Bingo."

That made Jisoo laugh. "Well, that definitely isn't of the time period."

"Exactly! And you two were on such a roll that I didn't want to waste it on a take we'd probably have to scrap and redo."

A lot of the crew were still looking around, having no idea what the three of you are referring to, but this was one of the reasons why that Taehyung was one of the best directors even at his young age. He could catch a few things that others didn't. Saved time and was honestly less frustrating than having to redo a scene multiple times.

There was another voice coming from behind one of the cameras. "Does that mean I can finally talk Hogwarts Express and express me outta this era for now? Seriously, Ultra Best Camera Woman of the Year needs a BREAK!"

That made everyone there laugh, including Taehyung. "You hear Lisa everyone, take a break as we locate the source of the sound and we'll continue in ten."

"JUST TEN?"

".... Fifteen?"

"... Deal," Lisa stated as she nodded, then dashed off towards where the recently replaced food was sitting.

"Don't you dare forge my signature again to get some extra - LISA WHY ARE YOU LAUGHING?" One of the assistants said, clear panic in his voice as he started chasing her down. "WE HAVE A BUDGET FOR A REASON WOMAN."

"... Poor Eunwoo," Jisoo said, pretending to mourn.

"Yes, poor Eunwoo. May he somehow make it through Lisa's hijinks," you added, both smiling, watching the handsome DA chase down the craziest - though she was correct about being one of the best - camera women.

Taehyung just blinked, then looked at you two. "So, since you guys heard it as well, care to help me look for it?"

Jisoo shook her head. "Nuh uh! I didn't hear it! Y/N did and you can drag her into this." She stood up smiling. "I'm going to go run lines with Jin since we are supposed to be arriving at his place in the scene after this."

This made you laugh. "Alright alright. I'll go. And tell Jungkook to breathe, he has been nervous since they added more lines to his section. It's his fault for gaining so much attention so easily and he just needs to have faith in his talents," you state as you too get up and pick up the bountiful skirts and underskirts and whatever they have you in for this.

Pride and Prejudice era type thing, why did you agree to this again? This costuming is INTENSE.

Taehyung smiled at you. "At least I have ONE good set of ears nearby. Quick! Before the sound drives me nuts or before the break ends and Lisa manages to somehow derail us for another fifteen," he joked as he held out his hand to help you down.

You took it and nodded. "Yes, the sooner we finish our scenes today, the sooner I get out of this, and the less likely I am going to trip again because when I fall in this, I fall hard. Don't let the layers fool you, it does NOT cushion," you state, making the other two laugh.

As you and Taehyung wave to Jisoo, you start working towards figuring out what the sound was. "This direction," you ask, motioning to where you thought the sound came from.

"That direction," Taehyung nodded, confirming his thoughts as well. And so, the two of you went, trying to see if you could figure out what set off the chaos that was break on set.

One day, I will post stories here too… on tumblr. Though it might be on my BTS account - because they truly inspire me and really stoke my creativity and imagination.

But don’t think they are my only inspiration. Thank you to all the authors who write and post here. You are one of my end goals and I am here for it! I will always root and cheer for you - and if you have to step away, that is okay too. Thank you for giving us what you have, and I will always be wishing you the best in whatever you do.

My Four Random Words:

suppress

long

able

lecture

Go back to college they said. You can do it they said. What they didn't say was even though you have matured and have experience now, is that lectures were still just as tiring.

EVEN MORE SO IN FACT.

How long have you been wanting to yawn but know it would be complete obvious if you did so? How much did you have to suppress the urge to just lay your head down because honestly, you are a working adult and these shifts are starting to truly wear you down.

This has to be inhumane!

"This is important history here," the gentleman up front stated before he fixes his glasses. "It is constantly being mistold. Everyone has accepted one way - one version of this story. And it is the version with the 'Happily Ever After' ending. And it just truly isn't correct. How can we learn how to counter? How is Belle alive to this day? What do you mean you don't know what I am talking about? If you have watched Beauty and the Beast by Disney, you think you know the tale.

But you are completely misinformed."

You sat up again. Truly, how people don't know the truth and assume that the happy story is the correct story. How are they able to just... function? They must be confused when they talk to someone who's ancestors are some of the real house servants who lived with 'the Beast'.

And you hear this lecture time and time again. Yet there is always that person who speaks up, tries to correct, and then is flattened when the professor has to show how they are wrong and in so many ways.

And he always does it with that sigh.

Fairy tales really happened, but not quite like everyone expected. Some of the story tellers edited slightly to suit what they wanted, but for the most part, a lot of it contained crucial information.

But only more recently have people realized the truth and accepted it. Only more recently has the 'Fairy Tale' World allowed the rest of the world to actually see them, learn about them, and show them the truths behind EVERYTHING.

You think people would eat this information up. But no, they are so set in their happily ever after for everything that it has taken nearly shaking sense into the 'normal world' for some of it to get into their thick skulls.

And this is why it is boring. Once he starts getting to the real stuff - able to get past this beginner phase with basic information, that's when it gets good.

It just takes far to long to GET THERE.

Four Random Words for today:

admit

reasonable

health

agreement

"Admit it, this is a reasonable explanation for this," your friend exclaims triumphantly. He was looking pretty smug as he looked at you, as if he had all the answers in the world.

"... no. Never. Nope. Not doing it," you reply after a pause, and you have to hide your smile as he deflates a little bit and looks at you in shock.

"Seriously?!!?"

"The agreement DOES. NOT. MAKE. SENSE," you reply, emphasizing your words. "Honestly, who would agree to that and have it think it was a valid thing to agree to-"

"I don't care - maybe their health was declining and so it made perfect sense in their mind. Either way, that book is brilliant and I am sticking to it!"

"So you're telling me that Mr. Body somehow just... forgives his 'friends' from trying to kill him at the end of EVERY Clue book and invites them all over again and think 'well, maybe they won't try to kill me this time and we can have fun!'. I THINK NOT!"

You plop down the 'child' book series. "This is ridiculous and could NEVER be a real life thing. You cannot make a series or a movie out of this. It barely passes reasoning in the books. I think it should just stay a book series and leave it as that."

"And I think it would make a FANASTIC series on TV! Every episode is one of the cases - "

"And every third case they supposedly kill him and somehow magically comes back to life in the next to begin the dreaded three again? No. Never."

He plops down onto the sofa with the loudest groan. "Ugh, you just don't see brilliance when you hear it!"

You smile and grab a handful of his popcorn. "And you need to realize not all books have to be made into a movie or a show."

My 4 Random Words:

relief

acceptance

sea

expertise

"So, you're telling me -"

"This is your SEA of expertise!" The laughter that followed was met by your shaking head. Did he just laugh at his own joke? Was it really a joke though?

"I... I don't think-" you start.

Jin wipes his eyes and waves away what you were trying to say. "It counts. You understand, it's allll good. Now," he says as he claps his hands together excitedly and rubs them, "we can get down to business!"

You shake your head, the small smile of acceptance trying to pop out. You really did enjoy being paired up with Jin. He had his moments of brilliance that others didn't appreciate. He was an excellent partner.

"Okay, how much do you remember about 'The Little Mermaid,'" you started, as you grabbed one of your older notebooks that you had used to jot information and details in.

"That it has a sad ending," he answered immediately.

"Well, depends on how you see it," you state as you flip through the pages. "It could-"

"Wasn't it supposed to be some sort of religious type feel or meaning to it? I mean, point taken," he states, giving you a face that you knew all too well.

"Yah yah yah, but there is more here that we can use to locate the what really happened - what the truth is and not that ending that the fairy tale author gave it."

"Hans Christian Anderson," Jin stated. You looked at him once more. "The author that wrote the version you're thinking of. Hans Christian Anderson."

You gave him a look of relief. "Oh thank god! We've worked on the stories he has told before! So we know what to look for when he took his things into his own hands and spun the tale how he wanted it and broke off from the history!"

Jin looked proud. "Great place to start from! Now, share your notes of brilliance woman! We need to figure this out quickly!"

To explain-

I don't believe many people read the stuff on this page - but if there is someone who DOES -

Be aware - I will be posting random writings, things out of order, just getting things out there for me to really get started. Sometimes maybe even stuff that doesn't even go with the main big story I am writing. XD

I don't know what is going to happen next, what I will post next, or what random spur of mind type stuff I will be doing. So... I am sorry that none of it will make sense. XD
